The seeds were planted in late 2001. Four kindred souls coming from different sides of the music spectrum converged, in a North London attic, to discover a common disillusionment with a local Metal underground ecosystem that seemed to operate on mundanity and 'scene points' rather than nurturing artistic individuality, atmosphere and imagination.
Several night-time meetings (both intoxicated, and intoxicating) all revealed a common attraction to the sounds of old-school Thrash, Black, Doom and Heavy Metal, and genuine, European-styled Death Metal (long before its current 'revival'), as well as the ambience created by more left-field artists. This was paired with a fascination with the occult, the human psyche and music's potential to reach the utmost recesses of the imagination, and a desire to create recordings that were respecful to the traditions of Rock and Metal yet unafraid to step into the unknown in order to transport the listener to very dark places.
Indesinence released the "Ecstatic Lethargy" demo in late 2002, followed by the "Neptunian" MCD in late 2005 and the "Noctambulism" full-length in 2006. Throughout the composition and recording of all three, they worked on their own deadline-free schedule, never closing a chapter until the material was believed to be developed enough in terms of power, flow and emotional content. The band applies the same restraint to the frequency of their live performaces, believing that more does not always equal better, and accepting offers only when conditions are optimal for an effective impact and communication. They have, over the last few years, shared the stage in the UK and abroad with artists such as Esoteric, Dam, Moss, Gallhammer, Ataraxie, Pantheist, Destrцyer 666, Avulsed, Salute, Imindain, The River, Orodruin and While Heaven Wept.
